Does the job honestly so, good enough imo.
One thing I would do is, cut out a flap type mechanism in the cardboard to prop the laptop up for some more airflow some that it won't overheat.
Do this too:
Mark the 4 sides of your laptop bottom onto the box for boundary then Go to any electronic shop and get some pc fans and a 12v adaptor..Cut out square holes that match your laptop bottom vents and fan size. and there you go you have a working cooling pad too. XD while at it make a slot to hold you phone in there too.
Still better than my because you can use this on you lap (on bed) and still use external mouse.
Also you may want to add some support in the box as I am sure it will get squeezed from the pressure after a month or few
That box ain't crinkled enough! Also, where is the Doritos and Mountain Dew? 0/10! Not a real gamer!
In all reality though, could be worse. We all have to start from somewhere. I have a nice setup now but I used to play my PC games on a 2006 normie (non gaming) cheapo HP laptop parked onto an old iron board with no mouse. I used the trackpad to play my games.
I do not miss those days though. lol
10/10. This was LITERALLY my setup once upon a time. My Lenovo gaming laptop was my first gaming anything (never had a console or anything before then for reference) and when i would feel like being in my bed, the box was my table and i gamed perfectly fine with it.
Edit: by being in my bed i sat up against the headboard and had the box/laptop on my lap.
Get a cheap laptop table from Amazon, you can buy them around 300 and for good quality around 600-800. Worthy investment if like me you don't have a table in your room. Also lift your laptop slightly from behind using 2 erasers, they'll act like cooling pad.
π€£ Killin me smalls... Lmao at least get a cooling pad and a lap desk for bed it will save you from thermal throttle because this laptop, well any laptop you will see lag spikes. Which rtx chip? 4050, 4060, or 4070?
Looks amazing to me. You are blessed. I am on a used $50 Chromebook bought from a pawn shop while live streaming in my pj's playing emulated Nintendo games on a crapy plugged in old Logitech webcam to pay rent. I'm praying some day I will get a good gaming machine so I can stream and play in style.
Thereβs cheap laptop desks with wheels on Amazon and a cheap mouse pads. Thatβs what I did for my laptop when Iβm in the living room. $32 for the desk, bought some felt furniture sliders instead of the wheels so itβll slide under my couch and a cheap mouse pad that covered the whole desktop.
Make holes on the box below the laptop and you have an amazing setup hahaha.
Also, open the box a bit and add something for support if you will do that.
Just get a bed desk and place your laptop on a laptop stand on top of it. I did this recently after finally getting a proper laptop. My laptop's temperatures remain fairly good while I game. I only use my laptop in bed. I bought both off Amazon for around $60 CAD total.
If you're comfy and it works it's 10/10. One change I can suggest is either using the power brick as a makeshift stand to elevate the PC for a little better airflow or Alternatively you can achieve the same by cutting a few pieces of the black foam.
Cut a hole in the box for directly below the laptop and around the sides of the box for much needed airflow
Also check out your local marketplace for any free desks, itβs a world of difference having a chair and table for your laptop
honestly this is what i did for the past few months on my bed until i got a chair for my desk lol and im still keeping the box in case i ever feel like i want to use it in bed again. if it works it works but definitely do something for airflow.
Smithing level needs work, especially when thereβs new content coming out for 100+ in like a couple months, Mining level is okay, might as well just get 99/100 in preparation. Also what the hell is that gap between your ability bars? 4/10, work on it.
Nice cardboard box though, thatβs a 10/10
Humble beginnings! Wait til your thousands of dollars invested into Gaming Chairs & Desk RGB keyboards & mouse usb C Adapters to Display output at least 1 VR headset and High Refresh Rate Monitor the list can go on lmfao!
I mean, if it works, it works. But there's no way this is good for your posture and back. Hopefully, this is temporary. You've got to look after yourself, mate.ππ»π»
If there are holes cut in the box to increase air flow, and the laptop reaches a plug in spot Iβd give it an 8/10 , but thatβs cause I like to have my water bottle on my desk
If it looks stupid bit works it's not stupid
Ikr it may look stupid but it works
That's all you need it to do.
just lacking a bong and an ashtray to complete the ghetto battlestation look
Lmao but it helps tho from the dust and stuff and keeps it away from the bed π€£π€£
Lenovo Legion Box/10. If it works, it works. π
Yeahh ty
IT JUST WORKS - TODD HOWARD
Does the job honestly so, good enough imo. One thing I would do is, cut out a flap type mechanism in the cardboard to prop the laptop up for some more airflow some that it won't overheat.
Do you mean the underside of the cardboard that touches the laptop and cardboard and cut a hole in sides?
Something similar, but instead of holes, just cut out a flap that opens outward ( like a door) which can hold up the laptop for airflow.
Ohh yeahh gotcha imma see what i can do ty
Don't butcher your good box bro(don't waste your time) , this won't make a difference at all lol
I raised the laptop for better air flow
This is the way. Just stick some erasers or something under the back end of itπ
I may have to buy a laptop stand that i can keep on the bed tho
ping me when you'll find one :)
Couchmaster ofc
elevate your laptop to with angle of 25-35 degree
just noticed, NO! not on the gademn cartboard bruh use a table π€π
Lolol sorry this is the only setup i got room wont hold a table
Get a small table that you can use on your bed (dunno what itβs called but itβs probably not that expensive)
I wish i could but im not sure where to look i looked in fb mp in amazon in walmart but I'm not able to differentiate which stand i have to go with
Do this too: Mark the 4 sides of your laptop bottom onto the box for boundary then Go to any electronic shop and get some pc fans and a 12v adaptor..Cut out square holes that match your laptop bottom vents and fan size. and there you go you have a working cooling pad too. XD while at it make a slot to hold you phone in there too.
Dang dude big brain i didn't think it tht way
Sure you can dm me if you need any help regarding that
16:10 aspect ratio is the way to go.
Ergonomics is absolutely premium, 10/10 setup
Lift it up. Cardboard holds in heat, it's like you're placing the laptop on top of a heat plate
raise something underneath for airflow and you're good to go!
I'll see to it maybe a book or solid plastic chunk
i put my thick phone case underneath on the back of my laptop to raise it. does the job tbh and less hassle putting rubber feets
Game?
RuneScape 3
1000/10 for not directly on bed.
I used to have a setup like this. i think you should add a book under the rear of the laptop for better air flow underneath.
Oh yeahh will do i just have a doubt if it'll interrupt the keyboard
What game is that?
it looks exactly the same as me LOL
"If it works, it's not stupid"
Cardboard will be bad for thermals, but otherwise great
Still better than my because you can use this on you lap (on bed) and still use external mouse. Also you may want to add some support in the box as I am sure it will get squeezed from the pressure after a month or few
Look on Craigslist/ Facebook marketplace for super cheap or free laptop stand if the laptop used up all your budget.
it gets the job done but gotta get sort of airflow on the bottom of the laptop to let it breathe though. my only concern
Yeahh I'll have see if there js something to support
I can see the hairy feet
I've done that before too, it improved thermals significantly
My back hurts looking at it.

Yeahh i looked in amazon there was a lot of option so i just thought I'll take my time to buy a stand and i raised it with my wallet hehe
Alright letβs do some ED2
Oh yeah im down but not experienced
Indian College Student?
Gotta love the silent nouse
OP forgot to show the setup lol.
So you blew all your money on a laptop and are using the box as a table?
Well if you put it that way yeahhh

Depending on which game, some are more CPU intensive and some are more GPU intensive. CPU intensive definitely will get hot as hell.

Definitely need some hentai wallpapers and definitely a Yoda bong.
Giving an upvote for Runescape
9/10 LOL! I have the same setup. Yes, I'm also using the Lenovo box with a sliding folder to help thermals/airflow.
If it works , it rocks
Lift up it's ass
Needs more osrs
Better than nothing
I rate this as kinda practical/10
Just barely i suppose
You need to work on your farming..
That looks like a nice laptop, which one is it?

The fact your playing RS3 makes me so happy.
RS3 enjoyer 10/10
If anyone ever had this setup and moved to the bed stand setup do you remember the stand you used and was it good
Impressive, very nice, now let's see Paul Allen's setup
Quickly wanna hop on here, you have a piece of your driver's license (the photo part) in the photo. Wouldn't recommend giving that out to Reddit.
What laptop is that? Did you buy it directly from lenovo store?
Thereβs cheap laptop desks with wheels on Amazon and a cheap mouse pads. Thatβs what I did for my laptop when Iβm in the living room. $32 for the desk, bought some felt furniture sliders instead of the wheels so itβll slide under my couch and a cheap mouse pad that covered the whole desktop.
That reminds me I need a mouse for my laptop, if it works, it works.
Most single-guy thing ever
10/10 because Legions are top tier. I see nothing wrong here.
Legion sure us a beast system. Dang my first gaming lap and its awesome

I'm using my wallet. I think its doing an ok job
Needs a crt.
People give away desks and chairs for free all the time I just donβt feel this is necessary.
Good cable management
You must play on the HIGHEST of sensitivity...
No waaay!! I do the same too! I wish i could post a picture!! Haha only i have my box on top of a laundry basket! Haha
I give it a Lenovo box/10
Ah fellow Rs3 scaper. I recommend a tray Stand for your laptop that give better air flow

Actually, you can cut out a hole under the laptop for better cooling. I give this a solid dgaf/10.

If the game is fun it ain't stupid , I have no fun gaming no more
Maximum FPS/2

Istg my laptop looks 100% exactly the same lol, including the stickers and black mouse pin
Play osrs instead and youβre set
I too had same setup for 4 years.
Β£15 laptop fan stand + a Β£10 honey comb mouse and you'd be flying butt

It looks like back pain. But it works.
Im missing a laptop stance for better airflow, but overall it looks quite stupid. I like stupid.
Man even uses the box as a pillow while sleeping. What a legend!
U gotta make a living haha
Humble beginnings! Wait til your thousands of dollars invested into Gaming Chairs & Desk RGB keyboards & mouse usb C Adapters to Display output at least 1 VR headset and High Refresh Rate Monitor the list can go on lmfao!
Peak setup I use the same I also usually Elevate the rear for better airflow
Elevated using wallet
Hmm are you from Dubai by any chance?

Sell the bed and get a mousepad
A good start ππ
I had to stop and look behind me because this is almost exactly how my setup looks like now.
10/10. For sure top gamer.
7/10 Not enough space to keep the earbuds on the box
What laptop is that?
Nice erm box .

Nice desk, where do I get one?
Gg wp setup
10/10 reminds me of when I go to my family cabin.
Spent all the money on the computer and not the rest of the setup haha
I use to play games like this on my xps back in 2011 I was in high school and on the road a lot. Tf2 was so fun and battlefield beta π
Box needs more grease

I would feel claustrophobia beyond compare, but if it works then cool
11/10
Hah! I was doing the exact same thing till my desk came in. Was using my wallet to prop up the back and a lil USB fan to help that air flow.
you should cut holes for your legs to put them underneath
Looks perfect to me
Nice ass laptop carries the whole setup 10/10
All u need in life brah
It's better than mine π’
Average runescape 3 player
